    Look under the dash at the base of the column. The backup light switch is mounted there. Just move the two wires from that switch to the switch on the T5. There is no clutch safety switch to worry about.

    No clutch safety switch but if you want one you can use the neutral start wires to run to a switch mounted on the clutch peal or linkage.
